CONCERT REVIEW - by BD contributer, Jorge “Mr_PinkFloyd” De La Rocha

A great night despite the TERRIBLE ORGANIZATION, with the gig starting one hour late thanks to poor staff that did not expect all this response from the people. The place was oversold, more than 100% for sure, and 6 or 7 of the 9 available ticket types were old school “find your own place” style tickets.

At the end, the number on the ticket was meaningless because everybody was just jumping fences or moving and picking up the best spot they were able to get. I ended up really far away from the area I was supposed to be, and my party watched the entire gig standing on some stairs, terrible and sad, but that’s very typical from these Greedy Pigs.

In 2002 I watched the tour in Mexico, DF and everything went smooth, and two days ago in Monterrey the show started right on time.

Anyway, Roger Waters managed to calm down the audience, hook us with his music really fast, and made us forget all this With a terrific perfomance, maybe too much Pink Floyd and not enough Roger Waters, but amazing indeed, way better than the 2002 tour in my opinion.

The setlist was the usual set (as expected), so I'm going to focus on the highlights (at least for me):

Mother was epic, out of nowhere I started to cry, smiling, but still full of tears. Shine on you Crazy Diamond was very powerful, the audience got hooked really quick and sang along.

Roger's new song Leaving Beirut was rrrrrreeeeally well received by the public, cheers and applause everywhere, Sheep was out of this planet, Animals is my fave Pink Floyd album and I always love to hear music from that particular album; Dogs from the 2002 tour was better if we speak about the “music” part of the performance, but on this 2007 tour Sheep has a way better “visual” part. The Pig made us go crazy “Cerdo Bush Derriba el Muro de la Frontera” (Bush, you pig, Tear down the Border Wall) was one of the messages on the Pig, the Pig was released at the end of the first half.

Dark Side of the Moon was well perfomed, some minor errors here and there, but a very solid performance, no doubt about it. Time, Great Gig in The Sky, Money, Us And Them And Brain Damage were practically fully followed by the audience, singing along.

I loved Any Colour You Like in particular, great job by Dave [Kilminster] on that one.

The encore, a Wall Medley (The Happiest Days of our Lives, Another Brick In The Wall II, Vera, Bring The Boys Back Home, Comfortably Numb) was the perfect ending for the night. The band was fantastic; Dave and Ian [Ritchie] were probably the most heavily cheered when they were presented by Roger.

Despite the organizational flaws, the night was magical. Thanks Roger, hope you come back soon with more of your new songs (and a new album!)

I have never been to a Pink Floyd or any member of the band’s show, so this encounter with Roger was very impressive!!

The show started over one hour late. The venue should be opened at 4:00 PM, but it was at 5:30 PM. Terrible. People tried to get in anyway they could. Luckily nobody was hurt.

The show was amazing! I got crazy when they played “In the Flesh”, “Shine on…”, “Have a Cigar”, “Wish you were here”, “The Fletcher Memorial Home”, “Perfect Sense”, “Sheep”, all Dark Side… and the encore was terrific!! I think “Wish you…”, “Sheep” with the Big Pig and “Another brick…” were the highlights.
